Listen to westkoast!
Stop making threads at the begging of the game Miguel. By the time the game ends they sound foolish! No way Denver takes this 7 games if they continue to let the Lakers layup/dunk the ball 40 times a game.
I think by "begging" you meant begining. I started this thread after game 2 was over. Based on watching what the Nuggets were able to do for 3 quarters, they could be VERY successful against the Lakers if they kept it up for the entire game. Check your clock before you start trying to talk with the grown ups, you sound stupid when you cannot tell time.
This might help you out there Esse...but the mobile version of this board doesn't post the 'time' so close but no jalapeno with the burn.
I was going off the last time you made a thread saying how upset you were with the lack of ball movement only for the game to end with them getting 33 assists on 46 makes. Whether you made the thread at the start, middle, or end of the game you are still wrong. This team wouldn't take the Lakers 7 games regardless. Saying 'if only they could do this...' when they haven't done it for the past 2 years makes no sense.
Hay the Pheonix Suns could be champs if they played good defense for 48 minutes! We could make entire threads on 'if only <insert squad> could do this they would win' for each team.
So did it not happen? Did the effort and change of attack in the 3rd quarter magically go back in time and correct the mistakes in first quarter? STOP being stupid!
If you are trying to say they were more disciplined and picked better shots in the first quarter you are wrong. It was the Lakers defense that made them look good in the first. They were still playing the same way they always do. Don't try to act like they started off the game focused, picking perfect shots, and executing flawlessly only to move away from it for the other 36 minutes.
NO! I was responding to your comments about my post in the 1st quarter of game 1. The Lakers played poorly in the first quarter of game 1 by NOT taking advantage of the HUGE mis-matches in their favor. They finally did later in the game but when I made my post it was TRUE, the fact that the Lakers corrected their mistake later in the game does NOT make what they did in the 1st any LESS true. Now you are pulling a Randy/Lurker/Reality on me and claiming I made a 7 game series comment in my post of game 1. That did not happen, try again OR just go away until you can understand what you read in posts and not confuse WHAT you read in WHICH post. Once you figure that out we will work on understanding what you get in RESPONSE to your own post. mmmmmmmmmmmkay......
You know what it does make true? My advice not to make a post so early lol
And even though I combined comments on two of your threads thus far in this series....
The following two things still hold true:
You shouldn't get so upset about what a team is doing 8 minutes into the start of the game.
The Nuggets couldn't take the Lakers to 7 games. Why you seem to think they could all the sudden win 3 games in a series when they've never got close enough to the Lakers to make it a close game all year regardless of who was on the floor, I dunno.
